DAYTONA INTERNATIONAL RACEWAY, Daytona, FL, USA (January 22, 2009) --
Turner Motorsport began the 2009 racing season with winter testing and
shakedown of the team's three BMW racing cars. The test was a
critical trial run ahead of the official Koni Sports Car Challenge
season-opener at Daytona Raceway this Friday and the on-track debut of
the new E90-chassis 328i that the team built over the winter break.

TMS Racing Director Shawn Passen thought the E90's first laps went
well: "This was the second E90 car that we built and it went better
than we were expecting. Our crew did a very good job in prepping the car
so we had very few of the teething problems that new cars invariably
have. We also rebuilt our two E46 M3s from the ground-up and those have
been running well."

Turner Motorsport president, team owner, and driver Will Turner: "We
put all of our drivers into the E90 for some laps and they all commented
on how similar the chassis "feel" was to the E46 racecars. The
new car has good brakes, neutral handling, and provides excellent driver
feedback - all similar to the "old" car. It's a new car
though so there's some work to be done to bring it up to our usual
standards."

All of the cars are built and prepped at Turner Motorsport's tuning
shops in Massachusetts. All three cars are running the series-mandated
Koni 2800-series adjustable shocks. Turner Motorsport components can be
found throughout each car along with H&R Springs and StopTech Brakes.
Turner Motorsport develops and sells each of their racing components to
other racing teams and individual racers.

Will Turner: "We put a lot of time into these cars in the
off-season. Our on-track test days combined with several days spent on a
shaker rig have given us a lot of data. We're ready to take on
Daytona -- a track that usually favors the high horsepower cars but
we're ready to get the season underway and compete for another
Championship."
